hi everyone fpc with softfloat seems to work quite well on arm (le). i've run into a strange problem, though. i've got code that looks like this:
writeln(stderr, 'gain is ', round(scan.avge.tip.gain * 100)); writeln(stderr, 'gain is ', format('%.0f', [scan.avge.tip.gain * 100])); sometimes i get an eoverflow exception on the second line. this depends on the value of scan.avge.tip.gain. here's a trace - might not be very helpful: gain is -10 An unhandled exception occurred at $0001D73C : EOverflow : Floating point overflow $0001D73C FLOAT_RAISE, line 111 of /home/hcv/freepascal/latest/rtl/inc/genmath.inc $000182E8 float64_mul, line 4387 of /home/hcv/freepascal/latest/rtl/inc/softfpu.pp $00021858 STR_REAL, line 361 of /home/hcv/freepascal/latest/rtl/inc/real2str.inc $000266C4 fpc_ansistr_float, line 862 of /home/hcv/freepascal/latest/rtl/inc/astrings.inc $00060978 FLOATTOSTRFINTL, line 1249 of /home/hcv/freepascal/latest/rtl/objpas/sysutils/sysstr.inc $00061C78 FLOATTOSTRF, line 1505 of /home/hcv/freepascal/latest/rtl/objpas/sysutils/sysstr.inc $0005E89C FORMAT, line 250 of /home/hcv/freepascal/latest/rtl/objpas/sysutils/sysformt.inc $0005F854 FORMAT, line 895 of /home/hcv/freepascal/latest/rtl/objpas/sysutils/sysstr.inc $0000A4C8 INITTAGRESULTARRAY, line 325 of repgen.lpr $0000D94C PROCESSFILE, line 603 of repgen.lpr $000102B4 main, line 819 of repgen.lpr any help would be appreciated! thanks henry _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
